Malone University is a private Christian university in Canton, Ohio, United States. It was founded in 1892 by Walter and Emma Malone as a small, co-educational Bible institute called Cleveland Bible College.[4] The institution has always maintained a close relationship with an evangelical branch of Quakerism, the Evangelical Friends Church – Eastern Region.
In addition to Malone University's traditional undergraduate college, the school also maintains a graduate school[5] offering master's degrees in a wide field of professional studies, an online school[6] with a variety of bachelor's programs, and degree completion programs[7] in management and nursing. The graduate school also has a post-degree professional development center[8] that offers workshops and certificates.
